24-11 in de Dolle Mol (gratis)

ik ervaar hun muziek als stevige gitaarrock, met een medodiëuze en ook een dramatische inslag. Onwillekeurig denk ik aan Marillion, Placebo, Nickelback en zelfs Metallica. Maar waar het jou aan doet denken zal wel weer iets anders zijn. Het is alleszins heel pakkende, aardse muziek. Luister even gauw naar de nummers op hun myspace: www.myspace.com/iloveobimusic

In 2004 Steven (guitar, vocals) returns from a sabattical year in South Africa. He decides to call two old musical partners in crime, Jan (bass) and Tonny (drums, backing vocals), to form a new and fresh band: Outnumbered by Idiots, or, if you will, OBI...

In 2005 OBI gave birth to a first demo, Susan, which exposed two sides of the band: gentle and romantic, and yet powerful and head-on.

The new, self-titled demo shows a more self-secure band, with 5 exciting morceaux of guitar rock delicacies. Call it indie music, post stoner pop core or... how about just 'rock deluxe'?

December 2006, OBI reached the finals of Rock tJOC and became 4th out of 51 bands.

February 2007, Outnumbered by Idiots became Demopoll winners with "Crop Circle", taken from the self-titled demo, thus becoming a Golden Demo at Demopoll.be...

February 2007, Belgium's leading music mag RIFRAF had this to say about OBI's 100% DIY demo cd: "This band is a great discovery!" www.myspace.com/iloveobimusic
